THE
HERMES
STANDARD
IPC-HERMES-9852


A PROTOCOL TO ADVANCE INDUSTRY 4.0 IN ELECTRONICS MANUFACTURING

The Hermes Standard, published as well under IPC-HERMES-9852, is
a non-proprietary open protocol, based on TCP/IP- and XML. It takes exchange of
PCB related data between the different machines in electronics assembly lines to
the next level. The Hermes Standard has been initiated, developed and
established and is further maintained by a group of leading equipment suppliers,
bundling their expertise in order to achieve a great step towards advanced
process integration. It has been recognized by IPC to be the next generation
solution for IPC-SMEMA-9851, usually refered to as “the SMEMA standard”. Its
founding and defining body, The Hermes Standard Initiative, is open to all
equipment vendors who want to actively participate in bringing the benefits of
Industry 4.0 to their customers.





ADVANCED M2M COMMUNICATION FOR BOARD FLOW MANAGEMENT IN SMT ASSEMBLY LINES

The Hermes Standard (IPC-HERMES-9852) provides the state of the art for board
flow management along mixed vendor lines in SMT assembly.  It is officially
recognized as the next generation technology setting forth from the
IPC-SMEMA-9851 standard. Where SMEMA in the late 1990s was a first important
step towards board handover between machines in an SMT assembly line, The Hermes
Standard introduces the full capabilities of industrie 4.0 technologies to the
assembly line.

Let The Hermes Standard help you unleash the full power of your assembly line.







CROSS-VENDOR / NON-PROPRIETARY

The Hermes Standard (IPC-HERMES-9852) is an open, non-proprietary and
vendor-independent protocol based on TCP/IP and XML for machine to machine
communication in SMT assembly lines. It provides flexible data structures to
seamlessly exchange all essential types of board related data such as dimensions
and different ID types. By this, keeping track of every board being assembled is
possible without the need for repeatedly reading bar codes or other ID tags
again at each machine. Thus The Hermes Standard is a key enabler of a controlled
and transparent board flow management beyond existing restrictions of the old
“SMEMA world”.


OPEN AND MODERN

The Hermes Standard (IPC-HERMES-9852) can be implemented free of charge by all
vendors of SMT equipment. Neither The Hermes Standard Initiative nor IPC will
request any kind of licence fee, while features and functions made available by
implementing The Hermes Standard will provide significantly value add to
customer.  In turn, each vendor is solely responsible for the flawless operation
of his equipment. However there is no doubt the maximum benefit for both
customers and vendors will arise from close cooperation of all equipment makers
contributing to The Hermes Standard.


SCALABLE AND INDUSTRY 4.0 READY

Version 1.0 was released in April 2017. It provided already an impressive set of
board flow management functions, far beyond existing possibilities. Future
versions of The Hermes Standard will further grow other functionalities, step by
step implementing more and more smart processes into electronics manufacturing.

Since then, the number of companies supporting The Hermes Standard has grown
significantly, and so did the supported set of features and functions enabled by
the standard. In order to keep that rapid innovation pace going, all vendors of
SMT equipment who seek further advantage for their customers are invited to
actively participate in the further development of the protoco. Join the The
Hermes Standard Initiative, an open working group started by leading SMT
equipment suppliers. Joining the group is free of charge.

DEVELOPED BY LEADING EQUIPMENT SUPPLIERS

The Hermes Standard has been developed by The Hermes Standard Initiative, a
group of leading equipment suppliers for the SMT industry. The initative is as
open as the protocol itself: It welcomes all equipment suppliers who want to
take an active, constructive part in developing The Hermes Standard. To become a
member, companies just have to participate in one of the initiative meetings.

benefit for your customers by actively participating in The Hermes Standard
Initiative? Click here and learn how.
